tanned from her an absolute deed of the
property, which was not read over to her at
the time of signing, and which she swears
she did not then know TO be such convey
ance. He paid nothing for her deed he pro-
posed to pay her nothing tor it, except from
the proceeds OF the sale of her own land,
and at his own will. He did not even intend
to be at any trouble or expense personally in
plating and selling it. She should pay that
also, and it is in evidence that after he pro
cured this deed for nothing. he tried to
frighten her INTO paying him S43S. 10 for
certain alleged services and expenses
This whole transaction, to my mind, bears
the lndicia of fraud and oppression. from be-
ginning to end, such as is the duty OF the
courts TO fearleSsly denounce. 1t Is not
case of foolish and afterward repented bar
gain; it is Il case where there was and could
be, under the circumstances, no legal ana
binding contract. 1t cannot be said that the
writing attached to the answer executed and
delivered by the defendant to the plaintiff
was consideration for the deed, and the
deed consideration for the writing, because
the writing notes that the defendant, by vir-
tue of his tax certificate, held good and
sufficient title to the land" His services
in plating and putting the land
be consideration for the deed, because in
that remarkable paper, given by him to the
plaintiff, he provides that he shall be paid
his expenses, ETC., in plating. / have been
thus particular to state the case fully and as
II has impressed me, because it Is one where
the defendgnt has adroitly attempted TO so
cover up the fraud practiced that the case is
one in which the court should be quick and
astute to detect and punish the fraud.
In this case it is proper to say there has
been no adjudication of the defendants
rights under the tax certificates referred to
in the pleadings. The only question passed
upon being the validity of the deed described
in the complaint, and of the writing set up i'll
the answer. WILLIAM LOUIS KELLY, j.

KAN MISREPRESENTED.
County Auditor Kahn Never Has
Dealt in Tax Titles,

County Auditor Kahn was misrepre-
scented in the account of the Walsh-Trott
tax title case published yesterday. 1t
was stated that lin 1881 County Auditor
Kahn sold the tax titles" Mr.. Kahn was
not auditor then, and, although the COM
plant in this respect is somewhat am
biguOus, it intended, to state that the
county auditor who occupied the office
in 1881 sold the tax titles. The odium
of the case is placed by MI. Walsh upon
Defendant HeermanS, who transferred
the tax certificates to George T. Hines,
of Syracuse, n. Y. Hines and Heer-
man, according to the papers in the
case, came up here this year and re-
quested Mr.. Kahn to indorse upon the
certificates the fact that the redemp-
ton had expired. Me-. Kahn says as far
as the duties of his Office goes he is sup
posed to act upon the presentation Of
such certificates and Immediately notify
the real owner of the property when the
time for redemption shall expire This
is to protect the original owner The
county auditor is not court of law to
decide in whom the title of piece of
property stands, but, as Mr.. Kahn re-
marks, II have done my best to protect
the TrottS, even going so far as to post
them OH what was going on. But had
nothing whatever to do with selling the
tax ttleS.''
